Police believe a second suspect in the shooting is another man who is seen making a purchase on surveillance video then returning to get change for a dollar just before the shooting. He is described as a white male, in his 20s, 5 feet 7 inches to five 5 feet 9 inches tall, between 140 and 150 pounds and wearing a black hoodie with white lettering on the front, black pants, black shoes and did not appear to have a weapon.

The suspect had short dark hair and a distinctive oblong bald or "white spot" on the top of his head which is about three quarters of an inch wide and 3 inches long, beginning at the front of his head and going to the back. Investigators are unsure what exactly the feature on the man's head is.

The convenience store was open for business Christmas day, less than 12 hours after the shooting.

A manager at the store, Ali Kahn, said Elaprolu was from India and had been working at the store for less than a month.

In the video, the gunman can be seen pulling the cash register off the counter and hauling it out, snapping an attached cord as he left. The video appears to show the second suspect exiting the store and turning right, seconds before the gunman came from the right of the store and entered.

Corbett said if the first man was not helping the gunman, he would be a witness who walked right past a man in a ski mask with a gun. A woman can be seen entering the store about a minute and half after the incident, finding the clerk and calling the police. Police believe another man in the store immediately before the robbery also may have seen the suspects outside as he left the store.
